Lyrics Breathe (feat. Rubén Blades and Doreen Montalvo) - Rubén Blades , Leslie Grace , Doreen Montalvo



Sigue andando el camino por toda su vida
Respira (breathe)
Y si pierdes mis huellas que Dios te bendiga
Respira
This is my street
I smile at the faces, I've known all my life
They regard me with pride
And everyone's sweet
They say,"You're going places"
So, how can I say that while I was away
I had so much to hide (hey Nina)
Hey guys, it's me
The biggest disappointment you know
The kid couldn't hack it
She's back and she's walking real slow
Welcome home
Just breathe
Sigue andando el camino por toda su vida
Respira (just breathe)
Y si pierdes mis huellas, que Dios te bendiga
Respira
As the radio plays old forgotten boleros
I think of the days when the city was mine
I remember the praise, "Ay, te adoro, te quiero" (te adoro)
The neighborhood waved and said
"Nina, be brave and you're gonna be fine" (te quiero, respira)
And maybe it's me
But it all seems like lifetimes ago (respira)
So what do I say to these faces that I used to know?
Hey, I'm home
Mira, Nina (hey)
No me preocupo por ella
They're not worried about me
Mira, allí está nuestra estrella
They are all counting on me to succeed
Ella da la talla
I am the one who made it out
The one who always made the grade
But maybe I should have just stayed home (Mira, Nina)
When I was a child I stayed wide awake
Climbed to the highest place
On every fire escape
Restless to climb (respira)
I got every scholarship
Saved every dollar
The first to go to college
How do I tell them why I'm coming back home? (Respira)
With my eyes on the horizon
Just me and GWB
Asking, "Gee, Nina, what'll you be?"
Straighten the spine
Smile for the neighbors
Everything's fine
Everything's cool
The standard reply, "Lots of tests, lots of papers"
Smile, wave goodbye
And pray to the sky, oh God!
And how do I dare to say? (Nina)
Can I go in there and say? (Nina)
I know that I'm letting you down
Nina!
Just breathe
